Do You Really Have Faith? | Contending for the Word in Every Battle

In this powerful episode of Waging War on Our Knees, Vicky brings a clear and challenging message about what faith truly is—and what it requires of us as believers.Drawing on the teaching of Kenneth Hagin, this episode explores a simple but life-transforming truth: faith is believing every word of God as absolute truth. Not just when it’s easy. Not just when we feel it. But in every moment, even when circumstances try to tell us otherwise.So the question becomes deeply personal…Do you really have faith?Many believers experience moments where they receive from God—healing, peace, provision—but the real battle begins after that moment. When symptoms return, when doubt creeps in, when thoughts begin to challenge what God has already done… that’s where faith must stand firm.Vicky shares a powerful example of a man who was completely healed of arthritis. For weeks, he walked in freedom. But when a small symptom returned, he accepted the thought that he had not been healed. In that moment, he stopped contending—and the condition returned.This is where so many lose ground.Faith is not passive.Faith must be contended for.The Bible calls us to:“Contend earnestly for the faith” (Jude 1:3)“Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7)“Fight the good fight of faith” (1 Timothy 6:12)Faith is not just about receiving—it’s about holding the line.Jesus Himself showed us how to stand in the face of attack. Every time the enemy came, He answered with one powerful phrase:“It is written.” (Matthew 4:4)That is our model.In this episode, Vicky calls you to anchor yourself in the Word of God. Because faith is built on the Word:“Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17)Without the Word, there is nothing to stand on. But with it, you have your weapon—the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17).This episode also walks through key scriptures you can stand on in every area of life:For healing:“By His stripes we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5)“I am the Lord who heals you.” (Exodus 15:26)For peace:“You will keep him in perfect peace.” (Isaiah 26:3)“Be anxious for nothing.” (Philippians 4:6–7)For provision:“My God shall supply all your need.” (Philippians 4:19)When the enemy comes back—and he will—you don’t agree with the lie.You don’t entertain the doubt.You stand and declare: “It is written.”Because:God’s Word is truth (John 17:17)God is faithful (1 Corinthians 1:9)This episode is a call to action.To write down your scriptures.To speak them daily.To stand your ground.To contend for what God has already given you.Because faith is not just receiving in a moment—Faith is holding the line when it is tested.Be encouraged, be strengthened, and be equipped to stand firm.God bless you.Support the mission:Visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://buymeacoffee.com/wagingwar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to partner with us, sponsor episodes, or pick up some merchandise.
